2. Drop the console and type /devmap swoop
3. Spawn swoops by typing /npc spawn vehicle swoop_mp
4. Ride the hell outta the track

think of it this way.. the track starts about 100 ft underground. as you go up, the track opens. as you go down, the track closes. i like it how it is.

well its ok, but it could be lighter, plus I was reffering to the whole thing being in a cave. it could all be open in the outside - canyon sort of.

yeah that grid texture thing is because my radiant is stupid. for some reason it won't compile some the system textures into the map. oh well.

Nice FaDed.
Tried it and as far as the basics of the map, the only thing I still saw was the white texture things at the bottom of the 2 pits, and the swoops that are still white.
Nothing more I could find out :)

GJ!

The onyl things I saw were the weird wall thing Onion mentioned, and the rather small curves.
Oow..and indeed the swoops not having textures aswell ;)

orion: i tried and tried and couldn't get myself to hit the skybox, while on a swoop. if you're not on a swoop, yeah you can jump and touch the skybox. i may fix that, i may not.

Ok my turn

agree with the sky box being too small on the jumps

for the sharp truns make the track a little wider, its near impossible to get out of those corners with out a scratch.

and one of the walls is messed up heres a screen shot

its like one of the first few turns after leaving the bike area and going left :)

okay, here we go

you touch the void in a sharp turn:)
and your roof is about 1 cm wide

so a bit wider roof and that's solved
the void is prolly just a small issue:)

for the rest:
good work!

nice nice very nice..

I jumped on the swoop and was on my way..

1 part of the wall missing texture
roof missing in some parts near jumps
swoops missing textures..

change from spawning the swoop default to a swoop_mp a nice red one or chase up and find the codes for the others and that

good job..

*gives piggy treat*
